Went to another location today with Ben and Floyd. Started off fast with Willa and Abby finding this bird within 10 minutes on the ground. Ben shot it with his 28 ga. Marocchi O/U his dad bought over 30 years ago. Images of his bird dogs are engraved on the action. We found at least 4 birds with a half dozen flushes but in tight cover and that's my excuse. Perfect weather for the dogs; mid 40s and overcast. When getting truck ready for today, I found the "lost" woodcock from yesterday to the relief of Floyd. It was under a bag, but in fine condition due to the cool weather. Gil
